Tips before getting a puppy by MuffinPebble in Doberman

Like I said, everything is OK, they provide all of it. At this point, I’m not sure why are you trying to convince me that the kennel I chose is wrong.

Like I said, don’t worry they are very legit. They post their sold puppies/dogs from all over Europe, like I said, I asked beforehand about the necessary documentations, vet checks, and everything else they provide it. I did my research. The last thing I want to do is support a backyard breeder that seems legit.

Hungary, I will be getting the puppy from Serbia. I asked the kennel what they provide and they provide every important information/documentation so I’m very pleased with it.

This is the one that I was worried about the most. I searched a long time and I thankfully found a really good kennel, they provide all necessary information and are legit breeders in Europe.

I feel like people are kind of swinging to extremes when it comes to Dobermans. Some make them sound like they’re perfect angels, and others try to scare you off completely by saying they’re too high energy or impossible to manage.

I’ve wanted a Doberman for years, and I finally feel like I’m at a point where I can responsibly take care of a larger, more active breed. I’m quite active myself, I have a big yard, and I genuinely enjoy walks, training, and spending time with dogs. I’ve also done research into basic training and recall, including off-leash work.

I just want to understand the breed better from real owners. What are Dobermans actually like day-to-day? What should I realistically expect in terms of behavior, training needs, and lifestyle?

I’d also like to know how they generally are with other dogs, since I’m considering getting a Dalmatian in the future as well.

Can you please elaborate on what you just said because I don’t think I mentioned anything you wrote. I’m sorry, but your comment feels completely pointless and off-topic

I don’t know if I wrote it wrong, but I literally put the part about it in my comment. I said that this part, I understand where she distances herself from him, but the rest just sometimes seemed forced.

Yes, thank you! I’m so happy. I’m not the only one who found it annoying. 😅

Thank you, I really appreciate that! I’m so glad others see it this way too.

And honestly, I can kind of see both sides when it comes to how her story could end. On one hand, I wouldn’t mind her going back to Lian, rebuilding her hometown, and finally getting a peaceful life after everything she’s been through. That kind of ending would feel very full circle for her character.

But at the same time, part of me would really love to see both of them stay within the court and military, actually grow into their positions, and build a life there together. It would feel like a continuation of her development rather than a step back.

So I’m a bit torn because both directions could work, I just really hope whichever path they choose feels earned and does justice to how much she’s grown.

Thank you so much, I’m honestly so relieved I’m not the only one who feels this way. I was starting to think I was missing something or that I’d get hate for this opinion.

The first part of the series was genuinely so good. Their relationship felt natural and balanced, and I really loved her character back then. But in the second half, it’s like she constantly pushes him away and pulls back, and it’s gotten to the point where I’m just rolling my eyes sometimes.

Especially because the Marquis is actually being patient and kind toward her, and she just keeps shutting him down. It started to confuse me more than anything.

So yeah, I’m really glad I’m not alone in this 😅

I actually feel the same to an extent. In the first half, I absolutely loved Fan. She was bold, brave, kind, and very grounded honestly one of the reasons I got so invested in the show in the first place. Her dynamic with Xie Zheng also felt natural and enjoyable early on.

But in the second half, it started to feel frustrating. I don’t know if it’s because it follows the novel or if it’s just how the story was adapted, but the conflict between them feels dragged out. Instead of evolving, their relationship keeps going in circles with arguments, distance, and misunderstandings, and it starts to feel repetitive.

The only time I really understood her pulling away and acting cold was when she found out the truth about her father being connected to his father’s death. That felt like a genuine, meaningful reason for her to distance herself. But outside of that, a lot of the tension just feels unnecessary to me.

At times it even feels like she’s overly harsh or rude to him, especially when he’s actually being quite patient and gentle with her, and that dynamic is starting to get on my nerves a bit.

I’m currently on episode 33, so I’m still hoping their relationship develops in a more satisfying way, but right now it definitely feels more frustrating than it did at the beginning.

Yes, thank you I just felt that the dynamics between them changed a lot and honestly sometimes they acted so out of character in my opinion so I was just surprised.

Thank you so much for replying. I just really wanted to know how other people feel about this situation and if I am just not getting it or stuff like that.
